What is Rmdy.io?

At Rmdy.io (pronounced ‘remedy’), we aim to create a unique, comprehensive solution for the mental health industry’s most pressing inefficiencies.

By building a proprietary system that determines the relative compatibility of each available treatment and provider for a consumer’s needs, Rmdy.io identifies and recommends the best treatment plan. More importantly, by housing this system within an online market that enables consumers to understand all of their options, and then strategically navigate and select their treatment, Rmdy.io presents a revolutionary focus on treatment compatibility, quality, and satisfaction.

In doing so, we are building a mental health technology that optimizes the industry, profoundly improving patient satisfaction, improving treatment effectiveness, strengthening long-term resilience, and decreasing overall treatment failure. We leverage the value of all stakeholders in the industry, including insurers, hospitals, providers, and care consumers, thereby building a profitable business model around a civic mission of making every person’s peace of mind more affordable, more accessible, and more expedient.

Stated another way, Rmdy.io is a computational system for treatment personalization. We believe it’s the future of mental healthcare.

The Problem

Depression, grieving, stress and anxiety, substance addiction – these are things we are intimately familiar with, that we often accept as a part of life. However, in many cases, untreated mental health challenges have dangerous consequences. While we may see the warning signs, too often we feel helpless in the struggle of others.

Treatment Dropout

Of course, one of the most dangerous consequences of untreated mental health issues is the risk of suicide. Consider how suicide is the second- most common cause of death for Americans between 15 and 34, or that there were 43,000 suicides in 2014 alone. To lend perspective, 41,000 American soldiers were killed on active duty during the Vietnam War, but the rate of suicides repeats, year after year.

The Solution

At Rmdy.io, we care deeply about unchecked mental health challenges, and too often we see the consequences when illness goes untreated. When incompatible providers, intolerable wait times, and despair at the state of services becomes commonplace, the industry must recognize three things that lay at the heart of successful mental health treatments, from the perspective of a consumer:

1

Every individual facing excessive mental health challenges brings their own diverse needs and expectations into treatment.

2

A genuine connection between the consumer and provider is imperative to an individual’s recovery.

3

There are hundreds of unique factors that can result in positive or negative treatment outcomes, especially given their influence over that connection.

There are hundreds of unique factors that can result in positive or negative treatment outcomes, especially given their influence over that connection.

Testimonials

I can’t wait for Rmdy to be up and running. I had no idea how difficult it is to navigate finding the right mental health treatment, but my daughter recently started exhibiting signs of an anxiety disorder. After an anxious breakdown and a hospital visit, we were recommended a therapeutic day facility to help her develop coping skills. I went to make an appointment with a child psychiatrist only to find that it’s going to be a wait of ONE MONTH for her first appointment. I simply had no idea how difficult this is!
